Fun Facts

1500 Years Tall

Welcome to a truly old growth rainforest. There are ancient trees here that have survived fire, storm and the faller's saw to tower over this land for over 1,500 years.

Slug Life

When you're as soft as pudding and as small as a glue stick, your lunch plans might involve being the main course. Luckily, our local banana slugs secrete a numbing agent that keeps them off the menu for the neighbourhood birds and beasts.

Our Ancient Ecosystem

The sights, sounds, and beauty of this temperate rainforest in Vancouver, British Columbia create an unforgettable nature experience for visitors of all ages. Along the forest trail, you’ll find thoughtfully placed educational exhibits and interpretive panels that bring the environment to life—from the rich life on the forest floor to the soaring canopy above. This rainforest walk invites exploration, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of the unique ecosystem surrounding you.
